Get The Most Gloss and Clarity From Your Paint
Our Level 2 paint correction service is aimed to remove 90% of the swirls, scratches, and imperfections on your paint. This is where we do an intense cutting and polishing step, called a 2-step correction, to get the most gloss and clarity from your paintwork.
For older vehicles, there will be more limitations on what we can remove due to the severity of the imperfections. It could be the scratches are too deep to remove safely or the clear coat itself is thinning out (we’ll take paint measurements before we start).
This is where we’ll make the proper judgement call. It’s not just about removing as many imperfections. It’s also knowing when enough is enough to keep the integrity of the paint healthy and within good working boundaries.
And yes, for newer vehicles, even just 4 months off the lot, the paint can still require an intensive service. Although you’ve only had the vehicle for a few months, the car has been transported and handled for many months by many people.
It’s during this time that the car is moved, washed, transported, washed, stored, etc… It’s no surprise that vehicles, regardless of make and model, leave the showroom floor needing paint correction.
The Level 2 paint correction is a commitment you’re making to the vehicle. If you don’t properly wash and dry the vehicle, you can easily put all those swirls and scratches back into your paint in just a few washes.
If you’re selling your vehicle and want to prep the paint for potential buyers, our Level 1 polishing or Wash and Wax is also a great option.

Paint Correction FAQs
Do you offer ceramic coatings?
We sure do! We offer a ceramic coating for all vehicles (at an additional price). You can also stay with the more traditional wax or sealant at no additional price.
How long do the results last?
After the paint is corrected, the next phase is maintenance. It’s just like training your pet to sit on command. You don’t just teach them once and think they’ll know it forever.
You have to continually train and repeat the commands. It’s the same with paint correction. You have to properly (and routinely) wash and dry your vehicle moving forward to maintain the swirl-free finish of your paint. If not, you’re back to square one.
Do you have a shop?
Yes! We offer all our paint correction and ceramic coating services at our shop location. Depending on the level of work, it can take 2 to 7 days to complete the service.
What tools and products do you use?
A wide arrange of machines, pads, polishes, compounds, cleaners, towels, and lights will be used to work on your car. Every car will be different and will yield different methods and tools.
What’s the difference between a wax and paint correction?
A wax does not remove any swirls or scratches from your paint. It only hides the very light swirls and can be completed in a few hours. Paint correction actually removes the swirls in your paint. This is what makes the paint shine like crazy. It also takes a substantial amount of time and energy to complete. Usually one or two full days (depending on size, condition, and desired results).
